Donald Judd — Cor-ten steel and black Plexiglas, in 6 parts
Donald Judd

Cor-ten steel and black Plexiglas, in 6 parts

1994

Six identical rectangular units of Cor-ten steel and black Plexiglas are arranged in a precise, evenly spaced vertical stack, embodying Judd's commitment to minimalist principles of order and repetition. The weathered, rust-toned steel contrasts with the deep opacity of the black Plexiglas, creating an interplay between industrial materiality and cool geometric abstraction. The work resists illusionism and pictorial reference, asserting itself purely as a real object occupying actual space.
